Abstract

A garage door frame (18) has a pair of vertical frame members (22) attached to each lat-eral end of a horizontal frame member (20). The door frame components can be transported to the construction or job site and assembled there to avoid the expense of welding at the manufac-turer and to better accommodate job site speci-fication and design changes. Alternatively, the components can be pre-assembled at the factory.
Each vertical frame member (22) is joined to the horizontal frame member (20) with a unique connector (46) which slidably inserts within the horizontal frame member (20) and between side walls of a U-shaped portion (44) of the vertical frame member (22). A combination of interlock-ing ribs (42) and grooves (56, 58) formed in the frame members secures them together. First and second preferred embodiments of the invention are adapted for use with extension spring garage doors and torsion spring garage doors, respec-tively.
